Back over prevention: display function
- What is wrong
- Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, Ltd. (Rolls-Royce) is recalling certain 2019-2022 Rolls-Royce Phantom vehicles. The Central Information Display may not raise to the correct position, resulting in a rearview camera image that is partially blocked from view.
- Risk
- A partially blocked rearview camera image reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
- Remedy
- Dealers will update the software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 28, 2021. Owners may contact Rolls Royce customer service at 1‑877‑877‑3735.
